    How do I post 2, 3 or more actual pictures in one post or reply? I understand it has something to do with the pics being hosted on the web and not in my HDD. I also believe it doesn't work with Yahoo, because they don't allow deep linking or something like that.

    Can anyone tell me how to do this?

    TIA Frank

    Frank,

    Open a free account at http://www.photobucket.com

    No spam, just register and enjoy :TU:

    After uploading your photos (max. size 249 KB each), you copy and paste the address under the photo starting with [ img] in your post.

    Simple like that, even I know how to do this :Brow: :laugh: :bglasses:

    Can yu elaborate just a little? I try and it doesn't work. Do I use the attachment tool in the BB or simply type the URL into the body of the message?

    Sorry to be such a pain...

    Frank,

    I understand that you created an account at PhotoBucket and uploaded photos there ?

    When you look at a thumbnail from your photo, you see 3 addresses under that photo:

    1 = URL

    2 = Tag

    3 = Img

    You can use the Tag or the Img address, I always pick the Img link.

    Now you have to Copy & Paste this Img link into your message on the board, and it will show as a photo.

    You said:
    From this I understand that you don't know how to Copy & Paste:

    Place your cursor over the Img link under the photo.

    Click the left-mouse-button, and you will notice that the address turns blue.

    When the address is blue, click the right-mouse-button, and you see a little sub-screen, click with the left-mouse-button in this sub-screen on COPY.

    Now the Img link is "saved in your mouse" (to keep it simple).

    Go to your post on the board, and click the right-mouse-button, the sub-screen will show up again, and select PASTE by clicking on it with your left-mouse-button.

    Doing this, the Img link will show up in the message at the place where you clicked.

    Now you can Copy & Paste all the photos you want into one single message.
    :TU:
